Q: I have recently been advised to check and control my diabetes. Sir, I feel a sort of electric current in both my soles all the time which makes me restless. I have stopped taking sugar and take vegetable foods. I also take raw garlic in the morning and also consume garlic pickle in white vinegar. Kindly guide me fully to overcome this problem and what other measures should be adopted to prevent diabetes from worsening. I look forward to your prompt response. Regards

Keep weight within proper limits (depending on height and frame)5. Keep testing blood glucose every 1 year6. I am sure that garlic is helpful
